Every time I turn wi-fi on, it simply says "Unable to scan for networks". Does anyone know how to fix this. I hard reset and that didnt help.
Try a full power outage. Pull the battery. Sometimes you need to clear voltage from hardware (especially radios) in order to clear the glitch.
If you find it necessary to do this a lot, there is a deeper problem.
If this fails, take it into the store.
I took it to the store and they said its a known bug.
They said they are fixing it in an update soon.
I don't know if its true...

I had the same problem, it started when my phone dropped below the threshold for the power saving mode, I believe I went into those settings and disabled some things and got it working after a reboot (turn fast boot off)

I'm just going to wait until the bootloader is unlocked and then flash Cyanogen mod 7 when he makes it for the Evo 3D
I'm having a similar issue, my wifi goes into sleep mode and says "unable to connect to wi-fi" when i wake the phone up, but then immediately connects back to wifi. I tried changing the wi-fi sleep setting in spare parts, but nothing fixed it.

Do you have wifi set to "never sleep" in wifi settings??? Also if your running spare parts+ it also has an option to set wifi to never sleep. Also are you running any apps that puts the phone to sleep??? Also in display settings try changing your screen off time to 10 min.
Locked & Loaded
I tried the "never sleep" setting in spare parts, but the setting doesn't hold when I exit the program and open it again, it goes back to "android default". I don't see anywhere in the phone wi-fi settings to change the sleep options.
I'm unaware of any apps I'm running that put the phone to sleep, and I'm not sure what the display settings accomplish but I can try it.
None of this happened before, only thing that really has changed for me is that I got the iGrip car dock and the phone has seen dock mode a little bit. That and I went to a house with spotty wi-fi and my phone would connect and disconnect at the range of the router. I've had other issues with app/camera freezing, I'm hoping it's sd card related or perhaps due to ota's not taking correctly. I'm gonna try a sd card format/phone data reset to see if that remedies all the issues, otherwise I might go in for an exchange.

BS. You shouldn't have to wait for a custom rom for your phone to be running normal. Take that **** back again.

This happens to me. I have noticed it only happens if I have had my phone get below 30% battery at some point and the power save mode kicks in. For some reason it is not switching it back once power save mode is disabled.
Sent from my iPhone with the bigger GeeBees.
The setting isn't located under Wi-fi, look under Power, you should see the options in there. Turn power saver off, or adjust it's settings, and see if that helps, I wouldn't use spare parts
I did a full phone/sd card reset, and the problem STILL exists for me. Spare parts did restore itself as one of the applications that got restored, I uninstalled it without running it though. My phone settings seem to have gotten reset as well. I don't get it, my phone was fine even with spare parts installed before.
I might try another reset and see if spare parts still restores itself.

Rooted the phone then applied the OTA update and since then i keep getting a wifi error. Im currently out of the country so can't connect to sprint. Any ideas?
Anyone?

Yup, had this problem after applying this OTA.
When I click the checkbox to enable wifi, it just shows "error" and does not enable wifi.
A factory reset fixed it for me.

The Atrix has a driver related issue that causes problems connecting to WiFi access points in certain countries. I'm pretty sure they have figured out a workaround over in the Atrix XDA section, sorry I don't have a link for you.
Hi,
My name is Fisher, I have the same problem, I have the phone in Australia and I updated over wifi then my wifi just says error underneath it, also 4G does not work. I can turn wifi on by first putting the phone into aeroplane mode then restarting and turning wifi on while still in aeroplane mode. I have managed to get all working occasionally by having aeroplane mode and wifi on, then going to system updates which are greyed out then turning off aeroplane mode by holding down the power button and when ive done that i have a second or so before the wifi dies to click motorola software update that is now not greyed and it sometimes kicks everything on;-)
I have tried factory resetting the phone 3 times and formatting internal sd on third time, did nothing.
Now i have some dmesg logs with the wifi under error, working in aeroplane mode and all working with my trick, so let me knowif u want them all.
I have a feeling the issue could be a sprint app or process that disables it, look at the access/security settings for sprint zone, it can control wifi, everything seems to be briefley activated when i start the phone in the notification bar then wifi and 4g die, so maybe a sprint process detects that the phone has not activated or something and kills wifi and 4g.
I have reported this on the motorola forum in the thread someone else started, look for " motorola photon wifi error" in google and it might be the first hit.

Mine is working fine, though today I turn WIFI off and my battery had a run away effect. The battery drained 30% in 10 min and the phone was at 116 degrees. It also rebooted itself twice but now it is fine and I turned wifi on and off a few times and no ill effect.
and yep I have the update.
Wifi ERROR after OTA update
hello everyone
i am not a US resident and i bought this amazing phone i am using Cellcom Israel Sim card
i just saw the firmware update,the update run smooth but after the reboot i try'd to turn Wifi on
and getting an ERROR.
try'd to reboot the phone - wifi not working
try'd to pull out the battery and restart - wifi not working
the only thing that works is when i restart the phone in AIRPLANE MODE the wifi works
but soon as i turn the AIRPLANE MODE off the wifi disconnected and cannot turn
it on again until turn back the AIRPLANE MODE again.
i do not using any data plan connection i dont have any...
what can i do??
Just do a factory reset. That will solve this problem.
Its a known problem. Lot of people are facing it after applying OTA. Just do factory reset and you should be fine.

Factory reset doesnt do a thing bro
Hi, I had the same issue actually watch the router and say the wifi connect and then drop, i installed wifi manager and then for some reason it started working and i haven't had a issue since.
no sure why it did this but i also restarted the phone multiple times trying to get it syncing and it wouldn't until that program was installed then after i got connected i uninstalled the app and it still connects without the app
got installed "wifi manager" and again error "error enabling wifi"
Factory resetting does nothing for me, I even formatted the internal memory as well on the third time, the only way so far I have managed to turn wifi and 4g back on and also data as data seems disabled is by:
Enable aeroplane mode, restart and then enable wifi, then go to system updates and you will see the 3 options greyed out, disable aeroplane mode by holding down the power button then click on update motorola software and most of the time that has worked for me.
kc_sheets mentioned installing wifi manager, I have installed it but not restarted my phone as I've managed to get it all temporarily working and Ill test the wifi manager when I have to restart.
Let me know if anyone else can get them all working using my method.
For troubleshooting, I know dmesg is good and probably lsmod, what other linux info can help me find out what the issue it, I would not be surprised if sprint has done something to disable wifi, 4g and data as the phone starts up, but it looks like it only disables at the last minute, does anyones wifi connect as you start the phone up, I think mine may have done.
I'm hoping we can just rename the process or app that is the issue and have a non crippled phone what we paid good money for.
Fisher
just flashed the phone and guess what??
wifi working again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! w000ttttttttttttttttt

after reboot the wifi error starts again.
that means no luck
I'm also out of the States and I just started having wifi issues today. It would see the SSID, try to obtain IP, then fail. I just set a static IP, default gateway, etc... and that did the trick.

you dont have wifi problems,its your router problem
my problems are with the wifi connection its not even trying to connect or activated its getting an error when i press the wifi button.
Posted on motorolla forum:
Hey guys, same problem - briefly:
Sprint customer - overseas for the next 6 months,
1. OTA update successful, achieved over wifi
2. phone restarted, wifi connectivity lost "error" as with fisher and the rest
3. airplane mode allows wifi connection until GSM is connected again, at which point it gets knocked off
4. I /also/ fat fingered my phone during one of the restarts and had both wifi and GSM working, but it's my nature to test things, so i restarted and of course now it's gone.
5. I am not able to attempt wally's re-register with Sprint approach as I will be away from the states untill January
6. I tried the update sprint zone fix - no luck
7. I tried the disable roaming guards - same as fisher, some of them are green and grayed out, no luck
Thank you !
Got an AT&T Titan today.
It seems to have wi-fi problems. I've connected it to my wi-fi network but frequently the phone refuses to *re-*connect to it. It can see the wi-fi access point and shows it with full signal strength but "forgets" to reconnect. When I tap on the connection in the list in wi-fi settings it will usually connect but sometimes will put up the popup saying that it could not connect.
I do not have this issue with any other device on the network (and I have many). I suspect that this related to the issue being reported on the other thread in this forum, that the phone starts to prefer 3G over wi-fi even when wi-fi is connected. There's a similar issue with the Radar.
Anyone find a way to work around this, maybe with some magic settings on the wi-fi access point?
Edit: maybe my AP? I'm trying a different one to compare.
Exactly the same problem here.. Wifi is unstable as hell, when it's been on for some house.. You never know if and when it's gonna connect again.. HTC drivers
No problems with WiFi here. My connection is always stable even when switching to other networks.
Sent from my HTC Titan using Board Express
Update: I've done a few things with my wi-fi AP and at least one of these measures seems to have helped, as I've not seen the problem since:
* Turned off 802.11b/g/n, turned on 802.11g only
* Turned off QoS
* Changed wi-fi channel to 5
* Added a second AP also set to 802.11g only (same SSID, channel 8)
According to the phone's wi-fi signal strength display I shouldn't have needed the second AP, but with it I definitely have a much stronger signal all over my house. BandWidth shows a speed bump from ~5M to around ~10M.
So maybe the Titan is very sensitive to signal strength? Or doesn't like 802.11n. Or maybe it just doesn't like the Belkin router I have.
I'll be trying this at work tomorrow to get even more data points. I use this thing on GoPhone and so non-reliable wi-fi --> the Titan is going back.
This seems to be a common bug. Mine is doing the same. It can be helped by disabling the data connection in mobile settings while you want to use the WiFi. Not a solution, more of a workaround but it bodes well for a software fix I'd guess.
I think this phone's wi-fi is working but is extremely sensitive to fringe wi-fi signal and/or channel interference.
Since I added a second AP in my house and adjusted the channels to avoid conflicts with the neighbors (using a wi-fi analyzer on a tablet), I have not seen this at home.
At work I've only seen this happen once, and it was near a doorway (where the wi-fi signal presumably is at its weakest in the building).
Mine seems to have developed this problem after installing the latest update from HTC (still on 7720). This happens even with the 3G turned off..
Hopefully it will be fixed in the next update because it is quite annoying!
hard reset makes a difference
so i spent a bit of time with htc support. they recommended hard resetting as others had warned me. in the end i got so fed up with it i tried it and actually the phone is much better on wifi right now. i totally cleared out zune too and reset everything i could think of. one thing i had on before was wireless sync. decided not to bother this time. no idea if it's the culprit but are you guys having problems using wireless sync by any chance?
si
I have also been experiencing the same issue with the AT&T titan. My old Focus works great. I know that HTC had some problems with the using spoofed MAC addresses and maybe the fix has something to do with it. HTC is a great company, but it seems to take them a few versions to get their code clean.
I manually pushed 7440 to my phone and I am not sure if it is related, but I have not experienced the WIFI issue since. The patch does not mention anything about WIFI and since it is likely a driver issue, probably a wild goose chase, but...
This thread has the instruction in case you want to try:

I take it back. Just got home and the problem still exists.

The problem persisted for me too after 7740. Still behaving at the moment after the hard reset. Fingers crossed it stays that way.
Guys the definite solution to all connectivity issues, marketplace and sharing issues can be rectified by hard reset. I know in absence of back up apps it might not be the best option for some. But guys that has solved my ever I going issue with marketplace downloads. Also I realised real performance update that came along with 7740 update only after the hard reset. It took me an hour to re add all my 8 accounts, sync back my photos and music and re add my 131 apps but in the end I am problem free and super smooth since last 29 hours. Oh and if you do a hard reset then don't add windows live ID during phone set up. Do it without id and when it loaded, restart phone. After one restart add live account manually. I think that saves some sort of log file corruption.
Sent from my WP 7.5 HTC TITAN using XDA Premium App for Windows Phone.
Hard reset does not solve the w-fi issue being discussed on this thread.
The Titan is very sensitive to signal strength and sometimes refuses to reconnect wi-fi because if that.
My WiFi password key index was set to 2. But I cannot figure out how to make this happen on my Titan (maybe all WP7 device is the same). Yes I can change the key index to 1 on AP but that means I have to reset all WiFi enabled devices.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
I've had my AT&T Titan for a couple of days and am definitely having this issue. My wi-fi connection does not hold, and when I look at my phone it is often searching to connect back to the wi-fi network. It always connects, but it doesn't seem to hold the connection. Which means it must also be draining battery? I switched from the Focus, and I never had this issue with the Focus on the same wi-fi networks. I am running OS version 7.10.7720.68. I'm not seeing any solutions here, am I missing one?

Pulling the battery out is generally referred to as a 'soft reset'. Please turn phone off, remove/replace battery and then turn phone back on. If this does not correct the issue, then please ensure that your personal information such as contacts and photos have been backed up in preparation for a factory reset. Resetting the phone deletes all data, including downloaded applications, and resets the phone back to its initial state — the state before you turned on the phone for the first time.

Performing a factory reset via settings:
Tap Settings -> about phone.
Tap reset your phone, and then tap yes.
Performing a factory reset using phone buttons:
If you cannot turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.
With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and DOWN buttons, and then briefly press the POWER button.

Same problem here. Sometimes when i put the phone to sleep, after a short period of time the screen turns on, and stays so until i put it again to sleep or wait until the timer (i use 15 seconds here) to power the screen off. This happens with or without wifi/3g so i think that's not a problem with an app trying to access internet.
Other annoying issue is when i'm charging the phone, sometimes when it reaches 100%, the screen turns on to say that's full charged, and continues on like.... forever. I noticed that when i put the phone to charge before sleeping and mornings when i go take the phone off the charge, the screen is already on for a long time.
Im using Stock Frankestein ROM 2.3.6 XWKK5 with CF "stock" root Kernel, with out Set CPU or any other Governor. Also using stock launcher.

Thank you for hints guys!
I think I find it! I use SPB Shell 3D launcher. In the settings of this app checked the 'using mobile data network to download weather informations' (or something like). I unchecked it and this effect was gone - at least last evening... Now I using wifi and reinstalled all applications like before and now no ads.
But this means I think well - an application try to access internet (with GSM data connection) but the service provider denied, beause I've no subscribe.
So I advocate for you to search something settings like this in your apps.
i have that issue as well..i tried few different roms and kernels but no luck. so its hardware issue i think.. .
Used to happen to me a lot,until i installed Go launcher and Go locker.I know its not exactly a solution but at least its working,plus anything else than the stock samsung lock screen is soooo much better.
And the end... Uninstall all apps which are using ads whit AirPush technology. How do you know which are they? The AirPush Detector helps you find them - search on Google Play it's free!
Thanks for your attention!

Hi folks,
I have had this issue a few times now, basically when I try to tun wifi on using the quick settings tile it doesn't come on, if I then go into settings-wifi & try to turn it on using the toggle the toggle moves but doesn't change to the blue colour or say it is on, it just goes a light blue colour, if I then back out of settings & try again the toggle is back to off. I then basically have to turn the phone off & then back on (the quick boot feature in developer settings doesn't do anything) & when it boots up wifi is on.
Anybody else had this issue? The phone is getting replaced in a few days due to gap issues, over heating & camera lens not being centred anyway but just though I would check.
Cheers.
No one else have this issue?

I think I saw someone posting this issue at Sony Support Forums, let's hope they fix this in the next firmware revisions.
I'll keep you posted if this happens to me again on .69.

@Jackos Cheers for keeping us posted mate
@pohsze Yeah mate, only way I have found so far to resolve it is to power off then back on, strange thing is wifi is on when phone finishes booting lol.
I have the exact same problem and I am on .55.
Sometimes I can't even turn Wifi off so I have to reboot. It is really weird because I don't know what triggers the bug.
I almost decided to return the phone but it is hard to recreate the error, and a reboot fixes it so I don't know if my phone company will accept the bug.
Since others have the same problem I hope they fix it in the new updates. Will come back when the .69 is released here.
I have same problem - switching in & out of AIrport mode cleared it.
I have the same problem.
First time I encountered it this morning.
Not sure from when wifi was not working for me.
In wifi settings no networks were shown.
Turning on wifi button would go light blue . . . but nothing would happen.
I selected Airport mode. Waited a moment. Then exited Airport mode . . . and wifi started working.
I'm on firmware .55

Hi folks,
I have had this issue a few times now, basically when I try to tun wifi on using the quick settings tile it doesn't come on, if I then go into settings-wifi & try to turn it on using the toggle the toggle moves but doesn't change to the blue colour or say it is on, it just goes a light blue colour, if I then back out of settings & try again the toggle is back to off. I then basically have to turn the phone off & then back on (the quick boot feature in developer settings doesn't do anything) & when it boots up wifi is on.
Anybody else had this issue? The phone is getting replaced in a few days due to gap issues, over heating & camera lens not being centred anyway but just though I would check.
Cheers.

Hey I get it sometimes too, just press and hold on the wifi icon and then manually turn wifi on in the wifi settings, works fine after that. Just a minor bug.
I have also experienced the exact same problem on the newest firmware. Only happened once, and going in to the actual WiFi settings didn't solve it, since the button turned light blue as described. Strangely after a little while when the phone was inactive it started working all by itself.

Samsung Galaxy S I9000

Same issue
Hello all,
I have the same problem when I tried to turn Wifi on by accessing Quick Settings and pressing Wifi button.
It works again after 10-15 times pressing Wifi icon.
It just happened last few days and I didn't have any system update recently.
Im also having the same issue. Anyone managed to get a fix for this?
Same issue
Im also having the same issue.
Anyone had a solution for this :/ ?
I don't think i have this issue yet since I just got the phone, but I remember when I setup my wifi connection there was an option to enable/disable wifi based on location. Could it be that the phone's GPS location hasn't update yet and think you are close to your wifi location thus won't let you turn on? May be disable this feature and report back if you guys still have this issue.
I am on .167 and this is happening to me more and more often it seems like it is getting worse. If I go into settings/wifi I get a white screen that says tunring wifi on and no further change. This usually starts occurring 18 hours or so after I reboot. It looks like no one has any idea what is wrong.

I have this same issue, a restart fixed this fora couple of days but now it seems the Wifi wont start up at all
Still had some warranty so returned the phone at the store that I bought it at.
Had the issue from the moment I got the phone from my gf (she has a new one) and did a factory reset.
After that I have flashed 3 different versions on it and for all the WiFi didn't work.
Let's see what happens after I get the phone back..
